Define your sound

Sonically, these instruments are designed to be flexible: Clear and defined on their own, responsive to external reverb, and the perfect complement to the ensembles in our Berlin Woodwinds main library.

Playable and expressive

Each of the players is a true soloist—from Paul-Gregor Straka on the bassoon, to Sabine Kaselow on the bass oboe. And you can channel these performances easily—three legato modes let you play fluid melody lines, while still offering plenty of scope for detailed editing later.

The soloists for your ensemble

These solo instruments complement the ensembles in the Berlin Woodwinds main collection. The up-front, intimate sound of the solo instruments sits well with the more spacious ensemble sound of the main room, while at the same time giving the soloists the spotlight they deserve. We’ve taken great care to make sure that playability, techniques, and levels are consistent across all Berlin Woodwinds—in fact, across the whole Berlin Series.

About the legato styles


Play straight out of the box with adaptive legato—play moderately, and you get a
nice slurred legato. Play faster and you’ll automatically get faster legato
transitions. Additional re-tongued transitions, where the player ‘re-attacks’
a note, provide added realism.

A single velocity layer for maximum expressiveness


Instead of recording fixed p, mf and f layers, the musicians were free to follow
their instincts in choosing the best dynamic for a solo part. This gives rise to lively,
dynamic long notes in different styles. While higher velocity leads the instrument to play
a subtle crescendo, playing more softly results in a slight decrescendo. By using a single
velocity layer, we reduce any phasing effect to a minimum.

Mic merging
Preserve your system resources: Fine-tune your mix using multiple mic positions, then merge into a single channel within the player.

Greater usability
SINE is designed to complement the compositional workflow. Create on the fly with auto keyswitch options, and easy remapping tools.

Download à la carte
Choose only the instruments and mic positions that you currently need—no need to download the entire collection at once.
